12 Overview Section 1 Introduction 12 3KXD151801R4501

13 Section 2 Users and Security Introduction User Roles in Asset Vision Professional extends default user role settings in 800xA. Default user groups, like Application Engineers, System Engineers & Operators, that are more meaningful in automation (manufacturing) environment are not used in Asset Vision Professional. New user groups for Maintenance people are created in Asset Vision Professional. User roles and groups provide security and access definitions in Asset Vision Professional. Some operations require Maintenance Engineer or System Engineer role to be performed. However, having the correct role does not give the user the permission to perform the operation. The permission is completely controlled by the security configuration of the system. The User roles define the security of the Asset Vision Professional system. Roles define the user interfaces for different user types / user groups. It also defines the permissions that each user group is provided with, for the operation and configuration of Asset Vision Professional System. The Users and user roles are based on extensions to Windows security model. The extensions make it possible to set permissions for users or user groups on the Asset Vision Professional system, a structure or part of a structure, or an Aspect Object. The users and user roles are created to match with the FDT user roles that are defined in the FDT specifications. Table 1 shows the Asset Vision Professional users and their mapping to the FDT user roles. 3KXD151801R

15 Section 2 Users and Security Asset Vision Professional Administrator Asset Vision Professional Product is targeted for Maintenance activities and not for the process Control. User Roles and Permissions are defined keeping in mind the 800xA Security architecture and requirements of Asset Vision Professional. For example, Application Engineer Role is assigned to Maintenance Engineer keeping in mind the scope of Maintenance Engineer in Asset Vision Professional Environment and visibility and accessibility provided by Application Engineer Role. Asset Vision Professional Administrator The Asset Vision Professional Administrator is responsible for installing Asset Vision Professional and System Administration. Also the Asset Vision Professional Administrator can perform: Installing device object types via Device Library Wizard into the Asset Vision Professional. This covers the installation of the DTM, Asset Monitor, etc. Activities that are performed by Maintenance Engineer and Maintenance Technician. The Asset Vision Professional Administrator needs knowledge of restrictions and limitations, as well as, dependencies of System Software Components and DTMs. Furthermore, Asset Vision Professional Administrator must have additional Windows knowledge, due to the fact, that DCOM settings and Windows settings need to be completed as a prerequisites for using device object types and DTMs. During configuration, commissioning and operation, avoid using the user s identity who is also a member of the Administrators group. All members of the Administrators group run the system with the security system disabled. Asset Vision Professional Service Account The Service Account is responsible for Asset Vision Professional services management. This account is not used for any operation except to run the Asset Vision Professional product services i.e. service with this user settings run under this account. 3KXD151801R

Scheduling of appropriate action in case of observed performance degradation. Configuring Users Asset Vision Professional is powered by 800xA suite of software products and simply follows its security definition architecture. The 800xA Security model is based on extensions to Windows security model. The extensions make it possible to set permissions for users or user groups on an 800xA System, a structure or part of a structure, or an Aspect Object. Roles adapt the user interface for different types of users, i.e. user groups. Some operations require a Maintenance Engineer or Maintenance Technician role. 3KXD151801R

18 Creating Windows User Groups and Users Section 2 Users and Security However, having the correct role does not give the user the permission to perform the operation. The permission is completely controlled by the security configuration of the system. Configuration of user roles mainly involves the following steps: 1. Creating windows users and user groups. 2. Creating user groups within the Asset Vision Professional Workplace. 3. Assigning appropriate user roles to each user group. 4. Assigning required permissions to user group. 5. Defining User Role Binding. 6. Synchronizing workplace and windows users groups and users. Creating Windows User Groups and Users The following windows user groups are created on Asset Vision Professional node: 1. IndustrialITUser - Created by System Installer 2. IndustrialITAdmin - Created by System Installer 3. Maintenance Technician Created by System Installer 4. Maintenance Supervisor Created by System Installer 5. Maintenance Engineer Created by System Installer 6. Administrator Default Windows Group 7. Power User Default Windows Group The Windows Users and User Groups (1 to 5) are created by the System Installer during the windows configuration phase. 18 3KXD151801R4501

19 Section 2 Users and Security Creating Windows User Groups and Users Table 2 shows the Windows User accounts created on the Asset Vision Professional node. Table 2. Windows User accounts created on Asset Vision Professional Node User AVPAdmin AVPService mnteng mntsupv mnttech Full Name Asset Vision Professional Administrator User Asset Vision Professional Service Account Maintenance Engineer maintenance Supervisor Maintenance Technician There is one to one association between windows user groups and Asset Vision Professional user groups. For example, Asset Vision Professional Maintenance Engineers Group is associated with Windows Maintenance Engineers Group. The following user groups are created during the restoration of Asset Vision Professional Backup data (Asset Vision Professional is delivered as a preconfigured software in the form of a backup). 1. Administrators 2. Application Engineers (Not Used in Asset Vision Professional) 3. Everyone 4. Maintenance Engineers 5. Maintenance Supervisors 6. Maintenance Technicians 7.

Maintenance Engineers 3. System Engineers 4. Maintenance Technicians 5. Everyone Member of Windows User Group(s) 1. Administrators 2. Power Users Users Users Administrators Administrators User Roles User roles help to customize the environment to suit the needs of each user i.e., the operations that require actions are visible to the user. The user role is used to adapt the user interface work with Asset Vision Professional user groups. For example, configuration dialogs are removed from users with an Operator Role. The user roles are associated with the Asset Vision Professional user groups. By adding a Windows user to an Asset Vision Professional group, a user is assigned a role. 20 3KXD151801R4501

21 Section 2 Users and Security User Roles The following User Roles exist in Asset Vision Professional: Operator Role - allows a user to operate a plant. The role makes it possible to use process control dialogs, acknowledge alarms etc. Application Engineer Role - allows a user to perform engineering operations and work with objects and applications built for objects (programs, graphics etc.) System Engineer Role - allows a user to work with service, node or user administration. Maintenance Engineer Role is equivalent to Application Engineer + System Engineer + Operator Roles. Maintenance Supervisor Role is equivalent to Operator Role. This role allows authorization of technicians actions. Maintenance Technician Role - is equivalent to Operator Role. Object Type Structure Role allows visibility to Object Type Structure. Library Structure Role allows visibility to Library Structure Aspect System Structure Role allows visibility to Aspect System Structure The default security configuration (permission and roles) is provided with the assumption that different users typically do different tasks. The assumption is that users with the role, Operator, control the process but do not tune or configure. The role, Application Engineer, tunes the process and makes all application configurations. Finally the role, System Engineer, handles the physical configuration like server configurations, adding users, and setting up security. 3KXD151801R

31 Section 5 Access Management For process critical operations, an aspect category can be configured to grant an explicit authentication operation before the operation can be performed. Two different authentication operations are supported: Reauthentication guarantees that an operation is performed by the correct person. Requiring a reauthentication immediately before a change can be performed guarantees that no one can use a workplace, if an operator temporarily leaves it. Double-authentication is used for operations that are critical to the quality of the product or required by regulation. It is used where the operator s knowledge is limited or where it is required that another operator verifies the change before it is implemented.

36 Section 7 PC, Network and Software Monitoring Standard PC and network equipment are used extensively in automation systems. The efficient behavior and status of these equipment have a significant impact on the performance, reliability, and functional availability of an automation system and thus the industrial process are controlled. The PC, Network and Software Monitoring (PNSM) software independently monitors the status of Information Technology (IT) Assets. By default, the IT Asset status is viewable via the Asset Vision Professional System Status Viewer, or through the standard faceplates provided with each of the predefined IT Assets. The PNSM when used in conjunction with Asset Optimization Asset Monitoring, generates alarms based on error conditions, and IT Asset status is viewable via the Asset Viewer and Asset Reporter. Once PNSM is installed in the Asset Vision Professional System, the data can be used to: Generate alarms Produce historical reports Update live trends and graphics Basic Computer Monitoring builds upon this framework to simplify the process of monitoring the workstation nodes in an Asset Vision Professional System. Workstation nodes are monitored for key health indicators and alarms are generated if monitored values deviate from expected limits. 3KXD151801R
